Answer to Question 1

A

Feedback
A Correct. Furosemide (Lasix), a potent loop diuretic, is the primary diuretic used in children to treat volume overload.
B Incorrect. Spironolactone (Aldactone), a potassium sparing diuretic, is a weak diuretic. It is not the primary diuretic used in children to treat volume overload. This class of diuretics may be given with loop diuretics or thiazides to decrease the potential for hypokalemia.
C Incorrect. Although bumetanide (Bumex) is also a loop diuretic like Lasix, it is not the primary diuretic used in children to treat volume overload.
D Incorrect. Chlorothiazide (Diuril) is not the primary diuretic used in children to treat volume overload. Thiazides act at the distal renal tubules and are loss potent than loop diuretics such as Lasix. They also cause the kidneys to waste potassium, placing the child at risk for hypokalemia.

Answer to Question 2

A

Feedback
A Correct. Erikson's psychosocial development of an infant is centered around the concept of trust versus mistrust.

D Incorrect. Erikson's psychosocial development of an infant is not centered around the concept of love versus hate.
